he is Alan not the PVC stuff like the others so will have to go get some poxy I think
or will super glue do ?

Yes moni superglue is fine but use the gel kind it won't set so quickly and gives you time to adjust

decals for my A10 - I think this adds another 12 schemes - why did I do it, now I have to choose between them! These are all for aircraft from either first gulf war or in Afghanistan service rather than the OOTB variants. Luckily they also use either the grey/grey scheme or European 1 - The MB ones are all 354th TFW and 6 of them - so I could buy 5 more and have the whole lot! - wait, that's just crazy talk, but I have thought about this idea - the madness of modelling is when you really think about doing the same model in a different colour scheme.


[edit] muppet, and now for two different decal sets!

Agree!!! The owner is Daniel, very nice guy. I bought a kit and the canopy was broken and he helped me get a new one from Revell free of charge, free shipping too.

Peter your a great one at getting bargains,

I scored these tonight - the dash 8 was £8 and is ripe for a military conversion. The C-97 has been started and cost a fiver.


The C-97 has some dodgy glue on it but it is recoverable. It's about 45cm long with a wingspan of about 70cm.


There's not much to the Dash 8, just a single sheet for the instructions!
